Hi everyone,

Mike Stay and I are planning to use Caja-CapTP:

  http://code.google.com/p/caja-captp/

as the secure object-oriented RPC substrate for our Shahar project:

  http://code.google.com/p/google-caja-shahar/

To that end, we have certain things we are thinking of doing:

a. Remove the dependency on E-on-Java and E-on-JS, resulting in a pure
Cajita project. (The Caja-CapTP tests are currently written in Updoc
format. We can refactor directly to jsUnit-style tests, or consider
Mike Samuel's JSDoc tool that gives Updoc-like functionality.)

b. Refactor the interdependencies between Caja-CapTP source files to
use the new, EMaker-style Cajita module system that Ziqing Mao
implemented over the summer. (Caja-CapTP predates this module system.
The module system has unfortunately not been well-documented yet.)

Thoughts?
